ABA reduces sugar content in gapcp1gapcp2. Starch and total soluble glucose in the aerial part and roots of 3-week-old wild-type (WT) and gapcp1gapcp2 (g1.1g1.1 g2.1g2.1) seedlings grown in the presence or absence of 0.75 μM ABA for 10 d. Values were normalized to the mean response of the WT in mg g fresh weight−1 (starch, 1.75±0.33 in the aerial part of the WT, 0.19±0.05 in roots of the WT; soluble glucose, 0.31±0.10 in the aerial part of the WT, 0.87±0.15 in roots of the WT). Data are the mean ±SD, n ≥3;. *Significant at a P-value <0.05 as compared with non-ABA-treated plants. For simplicity, g stands for gapcp.
